Corporate governance in China has come a long way – from being focused on state-owned enterprises to the enactment of the Chinese Company Law and beyond. Two major developments are about to transform corporate governance for companies doing business in China: the creation of the Corporate Social Credit System (CSCS) and the rise of Environmental Social Governance (ESG). The author describes the corporate governance framework in China, summarizes the key functions of the CSCS and the rise of ESG in China and analyzes how this will impact corporate governance of companies doing business in China in the future.
